DEC-2004

probable date of reopening.

Description

The Grutas de Tolantongo are located in Tolantongo in the deep Valle
del Mezquital.
Coming from Ixmiquilpan the paved highway ends and a gravel road leads down into
the valley in numerous U turns.

Tolantongo is not a village, but a hotel, a campground, a hot spring and the
show cave.
The unique feature of this cave is again a hot spring inside the cave.
The hot water mixes with the cold water of another spring, then flows into
rimstone pools, where the visitor may take a bath.

At the moment the cave is closed because of a roof collapse.
It will probably reopen in December 2004.
